- Yoda whipped out his blade while trying to set Whirry gently down on the cobblestones below. "Wish to hurt you, I do not!"
"That's odd," Dooku remarked. "I intend to enjoy killing you."
As Yoda released Whirry from his mind's hold, and let her spill gently onto the flagstones far below, the tip of Dooku's lightsaber scored a burning line across his shoulder. The Count's blade was quick as a viper striking. Among the other Jedi, perhaps only Mace Windu would have been his equal on neutral ground: but here on Vjun, steeped in the dark side, his bladework was malice made visible—wickedness cut in red light.
"I've hurt you!" Dooku cried. "Many times," Yoda said. He considered his pain: let it drop. Now he had nothing but Dooku to focus on, and his lightsaber gleamed with the same fierce green light that flickered from under his heavy-lidded eyes.
"But killed me you did not, when you had the chance. A mistake, that was. More than eight hundred years has Yoda survived, through dangers you could not dream."
"I know how to kill," Dooku hissed. Yoda's eyes opened wide, like balls of green fire. "Yes—but Yoda knows how to live!" Then their blades clashed together in a lace of fire, green and red: but the green burned hotter. Slowly, slowly, Dooku gave way: and in the dark, drunken Vjun air, Yoda was terrible to behold.-
This is the first part of the lightsaber fight, doesn't seem like it's being explained from Dooku's point of view at all. And it's this part: Among the other Jedi, perhaps only Mace Windu would have been his equal on neutral ground that I presume you asked for?

3) You can't act like a mod, even though you were quoting me.
4) So there.
See above.
I can act like a mod. I have experience as a mod. So therefore I can.
Thats what she said.

I'm saying it now... Mace is over rated. He is good, the second most powerful Jedi of the PT era but he aint the best ever.

Agreed, he's >>Darksiders purely because of his saberstyle. Without that he's not got much going for him.
And, girls? Keep it in your respective pants while ur flirting w/each other plz.
I'm trying to run a PG-13 bored up in hur.
At some point I'll have disputed more sucessfully the idea that Mace's style "super effective" against Darksiders necessarily, and also the idea that he is only capable of taking on darksiders.
Both ideas make me angry. So I'm going to remoev them with the only three sources I have available to me: Shatterpoint, EpIII, DR.
That is unless ppl have suggestions on where, specifically, Mace and Depa have been shown before? An allusion to some sort of circus or gang was made in Shatterpoint implying that there had been a previous book/comic about them?

Vapaad is perfectly capable of taking on whatever opponent mace faces. The darkness is Mace's OWN.
Where did you get the idea people believe the poppycock you are going to disprove?
Originally posted by ares834Wait you mean it makes the Vaapad user seem weak against anyone else? But other than that, yeah, it's a Deus Ex Darkness.
Vaapad is my least favorite style. I hate how it channels the opponents darkness, not only does it make a Jedi nearly invulnerable against DS it makes them seem weak against anyone else. It would be far cooler if it simply channeled the user's darkness IMO.

It's not a curbstomp. Mace is going down, but he's not "OMGWTFPWNED!"And Vader wasn't much of a Sith Lord at this time, just a really pissed of Dark Jedi with a recently christened Sith name.
He was a good enough Sith to take out Dooku, who was a Sith.. So i dnt get what your saying.. And So yeah id say this is a curbstomp.
